What is common amount of blood given during donations?

During a whole blood donation, approximately one pint (473 milliliters) of blood is collected. This represents about 8-10% of the average adult's total blood volume and is considered a safe amount to donate without causing any harm to the donor. The process typically takes 8-10 minutes, and donors are advised to rest and rehydrate afterwards to replenish their fluids. Whole blood donations can usually be made every 56 days for men and every 84 days for women.
